And I'm happy to see Scott post here--I certainly didn't expect that. We'll get his post count up in no time... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> ):I don't think they really answered the question here. The question isn't about the books and printed content in general, it's about the magazines. Why kill off the magazines? Why can't we have both? If they can't answer the question, I'd have appreciated if they said so.This is very good to hear, IMO.Isn't this exactly the type of information Paizo would have collected? They'd be good people to ask...And more? Either that'd take a bunch of writers and editors, or very little of the content will be balanced, I think. I wonder which.EDIT: Someone pointed out the writing staff is already pretty big. And it is, but if WotC plans on releasing books with the same vigor as before as well as frequent online material, they may yet need more (or ask for a lot of submissions).Gah! You can't tell us this and then not tell us whether or not our most favorite columns are going to die! I'm really anxious about Core Beliefs.This is nice to know. September/October should be interesting.The best idea I can think of is a client (it may be an online client, maybe almost like a quasi-email thing) that updates itself with information.Essentially, you make an account. For free, you can go to a "Previews" tab/folder and see all the content marked as previews. You may also have access to tables of contents. From there, you can choose specific features for, say $1 each, which gives you access to all current and archived documents in a feature. Say, you pay $1 for a month of Class Acts. For that price, you get all the Class Acts from that year and all archives. When the month runs out, your account just stops updating your Class Acts tab/folder. You can still access the information you had, but you can't get new information until you pay another $1. And, for 25 cents, you can get an individual article.Then, say, there are 15 different features/tabs/folders available, and each works that way. You can pay $1 for any one feature or $10 for everything in a month.For online tools (such as a dice roller or character generator, etc), those may be a bundle for $1/month, free with signing up, or free with any periodic (monthly or longer) purchase such that when the time period ends so does access to the tools.EDIT: There may also be a distinction between submitted material and WotC material--maybe a price different or a separate bundle or something.This question, and its answer implicitly ignore the effect on third-party companies. That is, my follow-up question would be, "Dragon and Dungeon magazines were important not just to Paizo and fans, but to the RPG industry as a whole as a means to advertise smaller companies and their products. Does WotC have any plans to allow or provide advertising for other companies?" I see this as a highly important question. Again, I don't know if WotC can answer it, if they can't, I'd appreciate an acknowledgment of such. This question also doesn't answer someone else's question of, "What about prisoners, who don't have internet access?"Regardless, I appreciate the time of the WotC employees involved and of Morrus. This interview did answer some of my questions.</blockquote>
